measuring C7 pain pressure thresholds

[cesca3108]

Hi, I'm an undergraduate student about to start my 3rd year research study for my dissertation and I'm struggling to find evidence for where the best place on the 7th cervical vertebral body would be to measure a pain pressure threshold using a pressure algometer?

i.e. unilateral; on the transverse process? or central; on the spinous process? or would it be better going into dermatomes and measuring PPT along the forearm?
